I think that of all the various mythical or magical creatures and characters of fiction writing as a whole, Dragons are by far the most diversely treated. Here on the Inkshares website we have everything from Dragons as beasts of burden through to super technological inter-stellar travelers with every single variation in between.
This is exactly what got me thinking about my Dragon epic ’The First and Final Dragon’ of which ’Traakenholt’ is the first installment. I have decided not to write ’a story about Dragons’ my goal is to write ’THE story OF Dragons’. It should be the Meta-story of all Dragonlore. It shouldn’t be a ’definitive official guide’ that prescribes what Dragons should be. it is more an explanation of why Dragons can be all the many varied things that writers have depicted them as. My ambition is NOT to say ’This Dragon idea is stupid’ or ’Dragons aren’t like this or that’. I want to write something that legitimises EVERY SINGLE alternative Dragon narrative in a single coherent form.
Obviously, every time somebody comes up with a new take on Dragons my goal gets more difficult to achieve. However, I love a challenge. I haven’t been stumped yet, so come on everyone BRING IT ON!
By the way. I am Welsh so Dragons do hold a special significance for my anyway.
If anyone got any seemingly strange reviews from me. I was not "trolling" you. Sometime my comments comes up blank, I don’t know why. Sometime I have to re-enter them several times and sometime some of the words are cut off when leaving someone a review. Sometime they turn up and sometime they don’t. What’s going on? I don’t know. And for all advice I offer is hopefully to help you not to hurt you. I’ve sixteen books to work on so I do not have time to do any of you all any harm.
@Kim Whale (I am just gonna keep pretend typing it tags you guys).
